when you die from blood loss, do you feel like you are dying from not being able to breathe? Because your lungs are breathing but you’re not getting oxygen where it needs to go, would it feel something like suffocating?

This actually did nearly happen to me (stupidly on my part). I had signed up for a blood draw and forgot to eat before it was time. As I sat there it became more and more difficult to breathe (like you I’m assuming it was from lack of oxygen), i didn’t realize why. Everything was graying out and sounds were becoming dimmer. Another donator noticed I was extremely pale, like absolutely no color, and called the staff over. I had to rest for about an hour and eat before I could leave and of course was told to take it easy. I never really realized just HOW much blood they take from you until I saw the bags, kind of crazy.
